As we enter the fifth day of 2015 I ponder the fate of our nation. When did we become a nation as divided as we were under Lincoln and who will be the next Lincoln, FDR or Reagan who will step up to the plate and rebuild and reunify us as a country?
I cringe when people such as "the Reverend "Al Sharpton, Oprah Winfrey, or Michelle Obama constantly create strife and unrest to promote their self importance to the media especially at the expense of the country and done so deliberately to segregate a nation unified enough to elect a black president not once.... but twice!
The fact is that there were no race issues for African Americans and would argue that another black person could be elected more easily than a Jew. I as a male about to become 50 don't ever think I or more son will ever live to see a Jew elected to hold the office of President. Color is not an issue!
So with that said I worry when will the great division that is destroying us as country be addressed or will it take another 9/11 or Pearl Harbor to reunite us a one, not a country of black verses white or Democrats verses Republicans but as Americans!
Almost two hundred years ago Lincoln wrote "a house divided against itself cannot stand", and today is proof that we need the type of leadership to revitalize the American spirit and rebuild our economy, to stand as a beacon of light against global terrorism and tyranny .
It is time that we demand a candidate not be identified as black or white democrat or republican but rather qualified and American! It is only when we are threatened or push to our extinction as a nation do we arise from the ashes and united to show the world and our fellow country men just how capable we are as a nation.
